As far as I know, it's the normal process, as long as you have a NTSC ps2 and game. I've never heard of this problem before.

You need to have a Central Station Account to play Sony-Onlinegames in Europe. To create a CS account, you need to have a Network Access Disk.

If you don't have this disk, ask somebody at your gamerstore where you can get one (or ask Google ;) ).

Yeah, or it's different for europeans, most of us use PAL. But same theory.

But as Benzol said you need to make an account, you can't register one on the game, because it's lame, if you already have a central station account then type that in with the password and your away... hopefully.
